[sdcc-devel] virtualization time

[Maarten B. <sou...@ds...>]

Fellow developers,

I know some of you use virtualization for testing SDCC.

I've tried and abandoned QEMU for setting up a virtual 
machine running linux on a windows host. Now I've tried 
VMWare and was successful in it's install. I've got 
Debian running and SDCC compiles and passes regression 
tests like on a native debian box. I also got samba 
running and can share and compare files with my windows 
system.

And now for the question: Even though I enabled ntp the 
virtual clock still skews heavily. So when I update a 
file on the virtual machine from the host, it gets a 
time in the future which 'make' never forgets to 
mention. How do you handle this?

Greets,
Maarten
